Mind Fields and Manifesting
By Eldon Taylor

Mystery schools have taught the power of intention for as long as we have a recorded history. It is the "intention" behind an act, a thought, a so-called duty, which is the measuring stick. Instead of inches, or temperature units, and so forth, it is the degree of intention in terms of units of emotional intensity together with units of direction (e.g. good or bad intention). The ancient texts deal with direction in terms of selfishness on one end of the scale (intention to do harm or deprive another) and altruism on the other. Yet deep within the texts a paradox appears. True altruism understands that the more one gives others, the more one receives. To be altruistic by definition is to do good acts for others without the expectation of reward. One can argue this philosophical conundrum ad infinitum, the paradox remains. Modern research reveals clearly that aiding others, such as volunteer and charity work, generates more joy than anything except dancing. [McGowan, 2005 #66] Further, the mystical schools have always addressed the unseen power of intent. From aura disturbances to just those uncomfortable feelings one may experience around certain objects or people, supposedly the emotion and intent can be sensed and is stored in the surrounding environment.
Is there any scientific evidence to support this perspective? The answer is an overwhelming yes! For purposes here, I will limit our focus to one of how we get where we want to be or manifest our desires, so only certain immediately relative aspects of what has been called the "field" of being shall be discussed. Still, I recommend that you pursue this inquiry further.
Sometimes called "thought forms" or "thought fields," new research is identifying at least what one might call the power of intention recorded and stored in patterns. [Gieseler, 2005 #19] These patterns may be invisible to the naked eye, at least that of the human eye, but not to other means of measurement. Radio waves are invisible, so what's the big deal about invisible thought forms? Why should the energy emitted by the human defy all the laws of energy and just be lost? When you think about it--common sense suggests that this mental transceiver possibility may answer many of the commonly experienced so-called phenomena ordinary folk experience every day.
One such study evaluated four people under controlled laboratory conditions. The 4 volunteers meditated a focused intention into a small electronic device. "The devices were sent to distant laboratories for testing. The thought forms in the devices successfully produced the results intended:
1. Raise or lower the pH of water.
2. Increase the rate of development of fruit fly larvae
3. Increase the activity of a liver enzyme by 25 to 30%."

Professor Emeritus of Stanford University, Dr. William Tiller has repeatedly demonstrated how thought can condition spaces. I encourage everyone to take a look at his book, Subtle Energies and Intentionality. For the skeptic, another great book highly recommended is Lynne McTaggart's work, The Field: The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe.
The next time you give thought to your thoughts, you may want to ask, "What am I creating?" Einstein said, "Only the field is real." You are a field within a field--a veritable transceiver of information sharing information, packets of energy, with and between both smaller (individual fields) and one vast interconnected field. Man is no longer distant from himself in the emerging model of modern physics. Mind and body are not separate as Descartes would have it and the smaller world of the quantum does not behave under different rules than the so-called large field of the physica as followers or Newton might want to believe. Indeed, it's all interconnected, one gigantic web. As leading pioneers in quantum mechanics have demonstrated, when the overlooked equations that stood for the Zero Point Field were added back into quantum physics, the results were astounding--so astounding that some die hard mechanists still refuse to acknowledge this fact. As McTaggart puts it, "If the Zero Point Field--an ocean of microscopic vibrations in the space between things...were included in our conception of the most fundamental nature of matter, they (pioneering researchers) realized, the very underpinning of our universe was a heaving sea of energy--one vast quantum field. If this were true, everything would be connected to everything else like some invisible web... They also discovered that we were made of the same basic material. On our most fundamental level, living beings, including human beings, were packets of quantum energy constantly exchanging information with this inexhaustible energ sea. Living things emitted a weak radiation, and this was the crucial aspect of biological processes. Information about all aspects of life, from the cellular communications to the vast array of controls of DNA, was relayed through an information exchange on the quantum level. Even our minds, that other supposedly so outside of the laws of matter, operated according to quantum processes. Thinking, feeling--every higher cogn on pulsing simultaneously through our brains and body." [McTaggart, 2002 #20]
